Synopsis

High school student Yasuto Akashi's day begins like any other, but a fight with his best friend—Senichi Aoyama—causes him to skip school. Akashi realizes that he is in the wrong, and so he immediately returns to school. However, instead of open gates, he finds the school completely sealed off from the outside world. Soon after, a giant cat's head blasts through the windows, and Akashi spots Aoyama dressed in a rat costume while drenched in blood.

Only three students manage to leave school alive that day, and similar occurrences are reported throughout the world. Akashi is not free from harm, however, as he is invited to partake in a deadly game whose participants are composed of those who missed school on that fateful day.

Mixed Feelings
Kamisama no Iutoori Ni is a sequel that lacks the thrill of survival of its prequel, and the reason for that is because it turned into a more Shounen battle manga.

Focusing on those students that skipped school while the games were occurring, the story begins at the same time as the previous one. It has its highs and lows, but the games here are not that interesting, there is no sense of worry or fear of what's going to happen, as most of it plays out just as you'd expect or it's just unpredictable for the sake of it, with no real purpose. The story ...

I'm basically only writing this review because it seems like the consensus is so thoroughly against me. For context, I read this roughly a year ago when I was first getting super into death game stories (Squid Game got me into it, Alice in Borderlands got me hooked, if you're curious). I knew this was a very popular series — popular enough that people who had read it thought Squid Game was ripping it off — and so I went in hoping to get a new favorite death game series!

I cannot put into words how thoroughly wrong I was.

This is a fundamentally poorly ...
